Your coffee maker brews daily, but mineral deposits and old coffee oils build up inside and affect the taste. Regular descaling keeps your coffee fresh and your machine running well.
Step-by-Step Guide
Empty and Rinse
Discard old grounds and rinse the carafe and basket with warm water.
Run a Vinegar Cycle
Fill the reservoir with equal parts white vinegar and water, then run a brew cycle halfway and let it sit.
Finish and Flush
Complete the cycle, then run two full cycles of clean water to remove all vinegar.
Wipe It Down
Clean the exterior and warming plate, and wash removable parts with soap.
Pro Tips
- Descale every month for hard water areas.
- Leave the lid open to dry and prevent mold.
- Use filtered water for better taste.
Final Thoughts
A clean coffee maker brews better-tasting coffee and lasts longer. Monthly descaling prevents buildup that can clog the machine.
